by António Machado (1875 - 1939)

Campo
Language: Spanish (Español) 
La tarde está muriendo 
como un hogar humilde que se apaga.

Allá, sobre los montes, 
quedan algunas brasas.

Y ese árbol roto en el camino blanco
hace llorar de lástima.

¡Dos ramas en el tronco herido, y una 
hoja marchita y negra en cada rama!

¿Lloras?...Entre los álamos de oro,
lejos, la sombra del amor te aguarda.
